    Hey guys, ive finally finished photoshopping my Space Snowbound screenshot to base it on the exciting theme of the next expansion, Halo 3: Recon. Im really pleased with the finished piece. I designed it to be like a promotional poster or desktop screensaver. Do you think the guys at bungie would take a moment to take a look? im thinking of posting it to the halo 3 forums. Here it is:

    I would exclude all of the text. It makes it look bad.

    If you were gunna not have the green text, you should more the halo 3 Recon logo over to the left side, otherwise its a bit blank. Speaking of the logo, where did you get it from? It looks really high quality.

    I think this one looks better. It actually looks very real. Great job.

    Personally I like the edited one but but i think the logo should be bottom left and you should have the prepare to drop still.

    Agreed. The prepare to drop just sounds epic, and doesn't look out of place.

    It was taken from a video still of the teaser, which was then painfully extracted using the lasso tool. I saved it as a higher quality jpeg file too keep a better definition.

    Thanks for the feedback. I'll move the logo and include the prepare to drop text. *goes back on photoshop*

    Ok, heres the third and final version. I really like the one.

    Get rid of the Shiny thing behind the ODST, Give the ODST more opacity, make the outer glow around the text BLACK, not yellow. THEN i will be VERY impressed with it.

    Very nice, personally, I would have kept the Reinitializing and Metropolitan Disaster from the original but it is still awesome.

    Also, can you get a 1920x1200 version?
